To begin today's episode, we will set the stage with our Power Words. James 1:19-20, Philippians 4:6-7 James 1:19-20  Our first Power word comes from James 1:19-20, which says, "My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry because human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires."  This verse reminds us of the importance of controlling our words and emotions. Instead of reacting impulsively to difficult situations, we should pause, listen, and seek God's guidance through prayer. Philippians 4:6-7  Our second verse comes from Philippians 4:6-7, which says, "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.  The power of prayer is highlighted in this verse as an undeniable source of comfort and relief during difficult and stressful times. It confidently asserts that the indescribable peace of God will guard and protect our hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. To handle life's challenges confidently, we must remember the importance of prayer. It is also essential to be mindful of our thoughts and communication, avoiding hostility and expressing gratitude to remain optimistic even in difficult situations. Trusting in God's timing can help us attain serenity.

Today's Power Word, II Timothy 1:6-7, declares: "Therefore, I remind you to stir up the gift of God which is in you by laying on my hands. 7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear but of power, love, and a sound mind." Instead, it involves aligning our thoughts, beliefs, and actions with our aspirations and objectives and harnessing the universe's power to realize those desires and goals. To manifest our greatness, we must first recognize and acknowledge the gifts and talents we have been given. We have unique gifts and talents; cultivating and developing them is up to us. But often, we allow fear, doubt, and insecurity to hold us back. We worry about what others think or feel we need to be better and worthy enough to pursue our dreams. This is where the power of manifestation comes in. When we align our thoughts and beliefs with our desires, we tap into the power of the universe to bring those desires into reality. So it is not just about positive thinking; it is about shifting our energy and vibration to match the energy and vibration of what we want to manifest. Moreover, that is where II Timothy 1:6-7 comes in. When we fan into flame the gift of God within us, we tap into the power of the universe and the Spirit of God to give us the courage, strength, and self-discipline to pursue our dreams and manifest our greatness. So how can we apply this verse and the power of manifestation in our daily lives? Here are a few practical tips: It is crucial to acknowledge and celebrate our unique talents and passions. Jot down a list of your strengths and hobbies with confidence and pride. Choose specific aspirations and objectives to manifest in your life. Then, write them down and visualize them as already accomplished. Embrace positivity and a can-do attitude. Instead of dwelling on negative news, please focus on the great things in your life and be grateful for them. Take action towards achieving your goals. Please do not wait for opportunities; proactively take steps to make them happen. Do not stress over the details; take that first step. Surround yourself with positivity and supportive individuals who believe in you and your dreams and confidently pursue your goals.

Today, we will explore the topic of "Our Perspective Determines Our Actions and Vision" and discuss the importance of shifting from a scarcity mindset to an abundance mindset and how helping others can lead to a more fulfilling life. How can we cultivate an abundance mindset and positively impact others? We can volunteer our time and skills to a local charity or non-profit organization. Make a conscious effort to spread positivity and kindness in our daily interactions with others. Why is it important to shift from a scarcity mindset to an abundance mindset?  Embrace Abundance: Instead of fixating on scarcity and what we do not have, focus on abundance and what we do have. Recognize that there is enough to go around and that we can create more mess.  Help Others: One of the most powerful ways to cultivate an abundance mindset is to help others. Giving back and positively impacting the world can create a sense of purpose and fulfillment. Remember that our perspective is a powerful force shaping how we approach our goals and interact with the world. When we have a positive perspective and a clear vision of what we want to achieve, we are more likely to take action and make our dreams a reality.  Ephesians 320 is our mind reset quote for today.

Why is a vision the most significant commodity on the planet? Vision is a powerful force that can drive us toward our goals and help us create a better world.  Here are three new and original tips to help us develop our vision and turn it into a reality: 1. Think Outside the Box: Creativity is vital when developing a vision. To create a truly unique and inspiring idea, we must think outside the box and be willing to take risks. Meaning being open to new experiences and perspectives and not being afraid to challenge the status quo. Jim Rohn once said: "To solve any problem, here are three questions to ask yourself: First, what could I do? Second, what could I read? And third, who could I ask?" Which leads to a deeper understanding of how productive we can become in society.  2. Let's Use our Minds: Our mind is the most potent vision development tool. Use meditation, visualization, and other mental techniques to help us tap into our creativity and focus on our goals, which will help us stay motivated and overcome any obstacles we may encounter. Remember that our human brain can make decisions on its own and can store an infinite amount of information. In contrast, a computer has to be programmed to perform the functions and has a limited capacity to store data and information. Our mind is powerful.  3. Create a Vision: Once we have developed our creative idea, it is time to create a vision for bringing it to life, breaking it down into smaller, achievable goals, and developing a plan to accomplish them. It also means being flexible and adaptable when encountering new challenges and opportunities. Our mind reset quote: Proverbs 29:18 King James Version Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he. Remember, vision is the most significant commodity on the planet. By thinking outside the box, using our minds, and creating a vision, we can harness the power of our creativity and achieve our dreams.  Keep developing your vision and achieving your dreams.

Here are three tips to help you progress through doubt and fear: Embrace Failure: Failure is an inevitable part of life, but how we respond to it matters.

A proactive attitude of gratitude will connect your thoughts and intentions to what is going well in your life, and we can find one thing we are grateful for. In addition, a gratitude outlook helps shift your focus from what is going wrong to what is going right and can help you feel more optimistic.  Take Small Steps: Remember, our life journey is not a sprint but a marathon that requires careful thought to your small steps each day because it is easy to get overwhelmed when facing doubt and fear. Break down your goals into small, achievable steps, and focus on taking one step at a time. Remember, it is not how you start but how you finish, and this mindset can help everyone feel more in control and help us build momentum toward our larger goals. Remember, making it a lovely day is about cultivating a positive mindset and taking action toward our goals, even in the face of doubt and fear. By embracing failure, practicing gratitude, and taking small steps, we can overcome our doubts and fears and make every day sweet. How can we make it a sweet day when we feel doubt and fear? Here are a few additional tips: Practice self-care- prioritize caring for your physical, emotional, and mental health. Do not compromise this area of your life or discount your efforts. For instance, getting more quality rest, going on walks after a long labor, and meditating to restructure our thoughts.  Surround yourself with positive and supportive people who believe in you and your goals.

How can we develop the toughness needed to weather life's storms?  Here are three actionable steps you can take today: 1. Cultivate resilience: Resilience is the ability to bounce back from adversity, a skill that we are confident everyone can develop. One way to build resilience is by practicing gratitude. Take time each day to reflect on your gratitude, even during tough times. Gratitude can help shift your focus from what you do not have to what you do have and remind you that you have the strength to endure. 2. Resilience in formulating a growth mindset: Having a growth mindset leads to a strong belief that we can learn and grow from our challenging experiences. Instead of seeing setbacks as failures, see them as opportunities for growth and learning. Ask yourself, "What can I learn from this experience?" and "How can I use this knowledge to move forward?" 3. Keep moving forward: Giving up or wallowing in self-pity can be tempting when facing challenges. However, you will need more than that to grow or develop resilience. So instead, focus on taking small steps forward, even if they are baby steps. Keep your eyes fixed on your goals and keep moving toward your dreams. Furthermore, for additional motivation, here is your power word that speaks to the theme of toughness during tough times: "Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance." - James 1:2-3 Remember, tough times do not last, but tough people do.

So, what exactly is our higher self? We believe it is the part of us connected to something greater than ourselves. The voice inside us always knows what is best for us, even when we might not realize it. As individuals, we often feel like we are being pulled in many different directions and with work demands, balancing schoolwork, extracurricular activities, social lives, and everything else. As a result, it can be tough to know what we truly want or the best course of action when facing a big decision. That is where our higher selves come in.

This requires constant effort, self-reflection, and a willingness to confront and improve one's flaws. Self-improvement and personal growth are crucial for success in life, and mastering oneself is a fundamental skill that can benefit individuals in all areas of their lives.

Let us start by acknowledging the dangers of staying in our comfort zone. When we stay in our comfort zone, we limit our potential for growth and success. We may feel safe and secure but are not pushing ourselves to reach new heights. Recognizing that progress and success often require stepping outside our comfort zone and taking risks is essential. One power word is from Joshua. Joshua 1:9, to be exact, says, "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go." This verse reminds us that we are not alone in our journey toward progress and success. We can overcome our fears and achieve our goals with strength and courage. Myles Monroe would also like to share a powerful mind-reset encouragement on this topic. He said, "The greatest tragedy in life is not death, but a life without purpose." This quote emphasizes the importance of having a sense of purpose and taking action toward our goals, even if it means stepping outside our comfort zone. So, how do we break free from our comfort zone and progress toward our goals and dreams? Here are three Call-To-Action Steps: Step 1: Embrace discomfort The first step is to embrace discomfort.

This may mean taking small steps toward your daily goals, taking a giant leap of faith, and stepping outside your comfort zone. Progress and success require stepping outside your comfort zone and taking risks. By embracing discomfort, setting goals, and taking action, you can break free from the enemy of progress and achieve your full potential. YOU ARE A MIRACLE. LIVE LIFE ON PURPOSE!

Whether they are a failed relationship, job loss, or even extreme failure, please let us not dwell or focus our attention on that failure or challenge. However, let us fix our attention on operating our life in close relation to the pilot and his aircraft through a clear understanding that our family can survive. Mind-reset quotes. By us leading our lives with precise attention on our aspirations, habits, and living fulfilled life through demolishing and dethroning all the uncertainty of not understanding a particular thing to learn all we can towards mastery. Mastery is not a function of genius or talent, it is a function of time and intense focus applied to a particular field of knowledge. The secret to success is retaining your child-like qualities. Robert Greene Furthermore, let us not forget how to love ourselves on our journey towards self-mastery. Genesis tells us that we were created in the image of God. God breathed life into us. His breath flows inside of us. Therefore, God is the source of life from within us. He is inside of us, around us — everywhere. Here is today's Power Word. 1 Corinthians 6:19 New International Version Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; YOU'RE A MIRACLE! God wants you to live life on Purpose.

You are in for a gift from today's show; welcome to the full joy podcast; this is your host, kevin, and we are glad you have taken this time to listen to our show. Lets us start today's show with our Power Word. Romans 8:38-39 "For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." Today's power word produces a bluntly claim that there is no mountain high enough to keep Christ from coming to our assistance and protection. Therefore, summoning both gladness and hopes to our hearts on observing God's love on display in such a manner while being reminded that we are His creation, and He loves every one of us so profoundly. What challenges are thats attempting to change your view of God? It is time to establish the standard of a conquering spirit towards all that seeks to destroy. Therefore, let us remind ourselves how fearfully and wonderfully of a creation we are while holding firm to the promises that God had knitted within us before the inception of our birth. Presently, we observe a necessary and unavoidable promise by God that He has already created a list of the worst things that can happen in this life to make the point that none of them demonstrate a loss of Christ's love from us. YOU'RE A MIRACLE! God wants you to live life on Purpose.

When an individual virtue exceeds that person, then they become the more excellent person. Moreover, we believe that each of our listeners possesses both a high esteem characteristic and high virtue, which allows us to discover our untapped inner strength and power to withstand all our temporary storms with high confidence. Yes, we will encounter a day in our lives where we will feel like life has hit rock bottom. Whether it is arriving to work late, experience a fender bender, possibly spilling coffee on our clothing before a prominent interview, or in some sense, like myself, who can have several minute issues pile up and make the entire day difficult. Let us continue on this journey with faith that God did not carry us thus far to leave us; we will close the door to the harmful chatters of failure, doubt, and the lies of our past. Here is our Power Word. Psalm 116:1-2 "I love the Lord because he hears me; he listens to my prayers. He listens to me every time I call to him." Remain dedicated to the transformational process of becoming a better person and elevating oneself, remain determined to stay the course towards growth even when our perspective of completing our goals may seem undone. Finally, please remain disciplined on our mind strengthening renewal journey because it is comfortable to revert into negativity or self-doubt, forcing us into becoming our worst enemy. By activating faith and confidence in God's promises each day, it allows God to assist in every area of our life. Because He does not want any of us to live a life in doubt of his presence in our daily lives, we can promise with complete confidence in God's word that all our struggles are always a part of his more excellent plan no matter how severe they may seem. Additionally, often we can feel as if we are praying to air. However, his word promises that he is listening. He will answer us; it just might take longer than we want. YOU'RE A MIRACLE! God wants you to live life on Purpose.

First, we want to express distinguished mother's day wishes to all the mothers from everyone here at the full joy studios. Yes, there is one day out of the year thats marked as mom's special day. However, we believe that all mothers should receive similar expressions of heart-felt love comparable to May 9. Every day should carry the same level of dedication as it is Mother's Day. We are honored to all the great women in our lives who have helped raise and influence us towards our self-discovery and greatness, take this time to shower our mothers, Auties, and grandparents with both appreciate meaningful gifts, at-home family brunch, and of course, a reemphasize "I love you, mom." The Bible our spiritual manual exhibits strong and powerful ladies who demonstrated stable spiritual mindsets, love for families, and unwavering female strength. Mother's have inspired generations. However, the spiritual manual does not directly address the holiday of Mother's Day in its verses. Still, it often addresses the celebration of motherhood and mothers, such as in the following power word passages. Isaiah 49:15: "Can a mother forget her nursing child? Can she feel no love for the child she has borne?" Proverbs 31:25: "She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come." Proverbs 31:26: "She opens her mouth with wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue." Proverbs 31:28–29: "Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her: 'Many women have done excellently, but you surpass them all.'" YOU'RE A MIRACLE! God wants you to live life on Purpose.

It is not enough to pray, but to meditate on God's promises is also necessary on our journey because life can seem confusing at times. We will have moments when it seems like we are walking out on freedom from challenges. To suddenly feel as though we are journeying through fire and extreme difficulties, faith is highly needed within either of these scenarios, having the faith that holds firm and visualizes God's promises through all our struggles. Furthermore, we can always pull examples and life lessons from our history, like, for instance, the story of the Hebrew men who encountered their test of faith and trust after being sentenced to the fiery furnace. God made sure that no harm befell them and protected them to the point that not even their clothes were damage through personally standing literally amid the fire. However, there is an integral part of these men's journeys that is not often voice, and it is how confident they were in speaking words of faith over their lives while steering into the death of the fiery furnace. Mind Reset Quote: When we pray, God hears more than we say, answers more than we ask, gives more than we imagine, in his own time and in His way. I believe their statements and their obedience to God are what attracted God to their location. God enabled them to be placed in the most dangerous circumstances to show their enemy that He was with them. "God with us," Emmanuel, is a potent reality. Here is our power word. Romans 15:4 "For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us, so that through the endurance taught in the Scriptures and the encouragement they provide, we might have hope." Zephaniah 3:17 The Lord, your God, is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you; in his love, he will no longer rebuke you but will rejoice over you with singing." Remember that we are the apple of God's eyes, and whatever trials seem to elevate their ugly heads against us, we will see God's victory because wherever He is, there are miracles and triumph. Let us meditate and allow God's presence to saturate us, which in return builds our strength and confidence that no weapon or fire can overcome our reality. We are not alone. The Lord is with us! Furthermore, that is a fact. YOU'RE A MIRACLE! God wants us to live life on Purpose.

We have mentioned numerous times in previous episodes how incredible you are, along with the outstanding qualities God has deposited inside of us. If uncovered, those qualities can transform our life and leave a legacy as history makers due to our life firmly established on an eternal savior. We are both loved and adored by a loving savior; we cannot allow or give way to things in this world that temporarily discourage or demolish our thoughts about God's love towards us. Furthermore, with our daily discipline towards growth and personal development, we will have the courage to declare a God can-do attitude while among disappointments or challenges instead of succumbing to discouragement or anger. Besides, a God can-do attitude will encourage us to pray for direction and support through each circumstance rather than praying for the circumstances to be removed solely. With the understanding and awareness that the road ahead will be challenging, we will turn out all right due to our steadfast faith in God while steadily holding on to His promises. Here's today's Power Word: Jeremiah 1:18 Now behold, this day, I have made you like a fortified city, an iron pillar, and bronze walls against the whole land--against the kings of Judah, its officials, its priests, and the people of the land. Jeremiah 1:19 They will fight against you but will never overcome you since I am with you to deliver you," declares the LORD. Take hold of this truth despite the current pressure or uncertainty of our world. Our future is bright and loaded with endless opportunities. Let us start acknowledging that we are a magnet of love, kindness, and positivity, which leads to a God's will expectation. YOU'RE A MIRACLE God wants you to live life on purpose.

Time is the only thing we all have in common, and the individual that cultivates and manages his time wisely will see exponential growth. A clear understanding of how to redeem our time is necessary due to the excessive distracting noise of this world. Furthermore, a daily reminder of our dreams and purpose can assist in realignment towards purpose, which also helps cultivate clarity in our thoughts. Here is our mind reset quote: It is not enough to be busy. The question is: what are you busy with? Henry David Thoreau What are you busy with? Decide today to become more aware of what we are spending our precious time on; each day is a gift, so investing our time with daily disciplines into the proper channels will deliver extraordinary results, both positive or negative. Here's today's Power word. Proverbs 27:1 Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring. Plus, having a clear mental picture of our goals will sustain a positive perspective of each day and set the standard on managing our time wisely. Moreover, dwelling in the past will not produce healing or productivity towards each day we are blessed to behold. We can achieve our purpose through organizing our time and planning wisely for the future. Furthermore, due to the advancement of technology, there are time management apps that we should take advantage of; if you are an old school, a simple notepad or calendar will help. Here are a few simple action steps towards our discipline time management skills. Pray for God's help to manage and remove procrastination and idleness from our lives. Take care of the most important task first. Investing our time through taking every thought captive and meditating on God's words. Convert those discipline time management traits into result. Identify your value Do not try pleasing everyone. Don't put your focus on the unnecessary distractions of life. When we live with an eternal perspective, managing our time better leads to a more incredible transformation to purpose. Always remember that every minute counts. We declare over your lives today that we will make an effort to redeem our time. Instead of repeating this false statement: practice makes perfect, let us replace it with practice improves. Always room for improvement.

Be warned; it is easy to feel unmotivated to pursue a passion while on our journey towards purpose, especially when encountering an abundance of opposition. If we are not observant of our thoughts, those oppositions can seem overwhelming to conclude that reducing our goals or just settling for a humble career might be the best decision. Maybe it is best to hold off on those daring dreams until our world circumstance changes. Furthermore, the negative thoughts can present themselves the loudest at times if not brought into captivity and place under subjection with what God thinks and say's about us. God has mentioned countless times how special and important we are, which in all honesty, from us here at the studio, trumps the views of others. Be reminded that we will encounter another more significant challenge with each elevation and advancement if we progress forward and not relent. At times our challenges are success examinations masquerading as an impossible assignment. Due to our steadfast determination to renewing and ministering to our subconscious mind, success will follow us. Here is our mind reset quote. Cultivation of the mind should be the ultimate aim of human existence. B. R. Ambedkar Furthermore, it is imperative to focus on cultivating our minds as the first step to unlocking victories over setbacks or failures. Now, the art of cultivating our minds could be comparable to a farmer cultivating his crops. The farmer would have designed a routine schedule and the discipline to locate and remove unwanted weeds or visitors in his garden. He would also remove nonproductive crops and replace them, and it is the same for us during this journey to becoming our best version. By locating any, toxic thoughts—such as stress, worry, fear, anger, and unforgiveness, can all cause damage to the brain. These toxic thoughts release chemicals into the brain, causing chaos and damage. They can also cause a loss of sleep or of the ability to do our jobs right, physical illness, and more. However, when we guard our minds and thoughts and keep ourselves in an attitude of faith, praise, thanksgiving, and truth, we will experience consistency, healing, deliverance, and victory. Here is today's Powerful word. 1 Peter 1:13 New International Version 13 Therefore, with minds that are alert and fully sober, set your hope on the grace to be brought to you when Jesus Christ is revealed at his coming. Let us commence identifying information or habits that have not yield any productive progress to our purpose and replace it with thoughts in line with the Word of God that will protect us—spirit, soul, and body.

Welcome to the third and final installment of our concise study into Zachariah's life of fear, self-doubt, and triumph. Today's show will reveal the humanity and curiosity of Zachariah by submerging ourselves into his thoughts which in conclusion is no different from how we would respond in that same situation. Our story picks up from Luke 1 vs. 18-23. 18 Zechariah asked the Angel, "How can I be sure of this? I am an old man, and my wife is well along in years." 19 The Angel said to him, "I am Gabriel. I stand in the presence of God, and I have been sent to speak to you and to tell you this good news. 20 And now you will be silent and not able to speak until the day this happens because you did not believe my words, which will come true at their appointed time." 23 When his time of service was completed, he returned home. 24 After this, his wife Elizabeth became pregnant and for five months remained in seclusion. 25 "The Lord has done this for me," she said. "In these days, he has shown his favor and taken away my disgrace among the people." Here doubt introduces itself to Zachariah, even after been assured by an angel of the Lord on becoming a father. Doubt still found an opportunity to sneak into Zachariah's consciousness, showing a harsh contrast on how easy that can happen to us as well after witnessing God's favor in opening unexcepted possibilities. However, God has always provided a problem-solving solution throughout his instruction manual in the form of what we here at the Fulljoy studio calls the I Can, I am, and Is there. Meaning, we will proclaim to our conscious mind that yes, I can do all things, yes, I am more than a conqueror, and also yes, is there anything too hard for God? Moreover, we recognize that the answer to that question is no; there is nothing too hard for our God. Here is a perfect chance right this minute to proclaim those promises over our life to witness God's super-natural breakthrough. Proclaim that: - I can do all things -I am more than a conqueror -Is there anything too hard for God? Stop talking yourself out of God's blessings for your life because there is life in our words that can produce results, either positive or negative. Notice how the Angel had to silence Zachariah until he beholds God's spoken miracle due to his doubt and little faith. God fulfilled his promise to Zachariah and Elizabeth at the appointed time while they stayed the course onward in faith and action. Elizabeth is now pregnant with a baby boy named John. John is called great, and the Angel of God says John has a great purpose to fulfill. YOU'RE A MIRACLE! God wants you to live life on PURPOSE.
